Why manufacture in Sweden?

Strengths and best practice – a summary of “Flaggskeppsfabriken”

Sweden is a strong industrial nation with many successful and innovative industrial companies. Such companies manage to renew and reclaim production and products as the conditions change. They have built Sweden's prosperity and are important for the future. This report deals with change management and development and is a short version of the book "Flaggskeppsfabriken – Styrkor i svensk produktion" (Flagship Factory - Strengths in Swedish Production). It is a book that is the result of a project in which ten highly competent companies with production in Sweden together identified strengths, exchanged experiences and best practices. The report focuses on the companies' efforts to continuously improve work and organization. The good examples presented are about achieving efficiency in day-to-day work and about successful change work.
